I think  the Board needs to re-examine the decision to change the 
requirements re  judges' credits/hours to require that some be in garden and some be in  
classroom.  Personally, I feel that the change is a good one.   However, we 
have to be aware that I have received some very negative input  that the new 
rule is "unfair" to older members who have trouble getting around  to gardens for 
outdoor judging.  My answer to that is that if they aren't  getting out to 
gardens, then how are they voting intelligently!  Anyway,  I support the change 
as it has been made, but we may want to discuss whether  exceptions can be 
made on basis of health or  whatever...

We made this change so let's stick with it.  We need to get ALL judges  in to 
the gardens -- otherwise they have no business voting for garden  awards.
